Auto bonnets were popular in the first few decades of the early 1900s.
Most were large-brimmed hats with a chiffon, net, or tulle scarf attached. The scarf covers the hat and ties under the wearer’s chin. Auto bonnets were worn to protect the wearer from dust and other road debris in open automobiles.
